It's a measure of Volans' success that his Cello Concerto originally composed in 1997 has been so enthusiastically taken up by a soloist of the calibre of Gavriel Lipkind. This was the first performance of a revised version which, at Lipkind's request, is even more relentless and uncompromising. Lipkind played it from memory, and with the unbridled panache of a rock artist.
